Surfboard size help

Yo dudes. I need help picking out a board that’s good for me and my style. I skate and have Ben on and off for about 6 years, but I skate transition with solid board control. I don’t think that transfers into the surfing world. I’ve surfed about 10 times so I know the basics. But I’m stuck on what to get. I want to be able to carve and turn and all that jazz. I’ve done it before in my buddy’s board. But idk what he had. Any help is appreciated
